Rules​
  • Follow all rules listed here.
  • Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for me to make decisions for activity calls when I can actually see what went down with scheduling.
  • If you are unable to schedule with your opponent, please let your managers know ASAP so they can communicate that to me or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.
  • Substitutions may be made after a week has started. When making a substitution, please tag myself, the managers of the opposing team, and all of the players affected by the substitute to ensure that everyone is made aware. Players who have already played in the week or were subbed out in the same week cannot be subbed back in.
  • If a match remains incomplete by the time of the deadline, it will be subject to an activity call.
  • Replays are mandatory. Not only are they useful for confirming wins, they contribute to usage stats and allow the people who couldn't watch the games live to watch them later.
  • Managers: Please send me your lineups in the same format that I used to post pairings. It makes it much easier to post future rounds more quickly.

Loathsome Lumineons (4) vs (5) K-pop Audino Hunters
SV ZU: Trichotomy vs Tuthur I believe in you.
SV ZU: sky vs Shadow079 Shadow might do an upset, but I think sky has more experience and shadow needs to focus on NFEOL

ORAS ZU: Ruffles vs DugZa Coming back to ORAS!
ADV ZU: Melninja vs Plague
ADV ZU: skrimps vs Zcarlett skrimps beat us in BW. I hope he can do the same in ADV.

SV ZU: Django vs diegoyuhhi Esteb4n and Django solved the tier.

DPP ZU: plznostep vs BeatsBlack
ADV ZU: Baoba vs Parpar
 
...only doing DPP-SM now....

Weezer Weezings (0) vs (3) Brute Bonnet Crew
SM ZU: Mirbro vs Greybaum - I like some of boths team builds, but I have never seen Mirbro actually play, while Greybaum has impressed me before in-game wise.
SM ZU: MZ vs a fruitshop owner - Highlight!! Fruits is kinda on fire and I admittedly haxed MZ last week a bit. I would say MZ is a better player overall but fruits made some very cool plays in his games.
ORAS ZU: Bouff vs sleid - similar case from above but here I believe the tier knowledge gap is bigger. Weezings ORAS support feels kinda doomed too, but I wouldn't really be surprised if Bouff figured it out himself and won.

MZ/fruits and Bouff/sleid are the closest ones imo, and I wouldn't be surprised if those went the other way around at all. Hate to predict sweeps because it feels like I'm a hater but yeah....


Rocky Helmet Rampardos (4) vs (0) Lana Del Catty
SM ZU: 5gen vs btboy - Cool matchup. I like 5gens teams more... And also think he's less prone to commiting blunders, btboy won this matchup last time with a crazy setup Volbeat though, so we'll see, should be a fun game.
ORAS ZU: 5Dots vs BP - I've never seen BP play this, 5Dots haven't looked great but he did his thing.
BW ZU: Tack vs TheFranklin - Very cool matchup. Frank is probably better at mons in general but not at this tier I don't think, should be very close.
DPP ZU: big tony 2014 vs Terracotta - Terra strikes me as the type of guy to tilt with non preview stuff.... Tony beat z spice last week....... Interesting..... I really don't know and these guys probably don't know either what they're doing but should be a funny game at least.

.... Another sweep. I'm really not more than 70% sure in any of those but the closest ones are probably tony/terra and tack/frank

Shady Spiritombs (2) vs (2) Bastio Don Julio
SM ZU: Toto vs Drud - Toto will win the speedties
ORAS ZU: DD Joe vs OranBerryBlissey10 - Joes team from last week seemed decent, OBB's teams so far seemed bad. Can he keep doing it is the question
BW ZU: LpZ vs DonBoneJones - don bone jones has a cool username that matches with the teams identity which is cool. He did decently in this very tier in BWPL too apparently but LpZ is a tough pull.
DPP ZU: plznostep vs BeatsBlack - Both are 0-2 and hungry for a win probably. I favor beatsblack due to experience but steppy has looked nice, mostly lacked luck in his side which you kinda need in this tier.

Drud is probably better than Toto in mons... Site wide surely but here i'm not sure. He also doesn't have the Totoluck so yeah... Close. Orasberryblissey should win too, unless he self sabotages past the limit.... LpZ and Beats I'm more certain of.
